It's like he was following a trail of breadcrumbs or something...

I have been thoroughly impressed with wee-man's ability to recall things from the past these days. He is becoming more and more aware, which is making B and I much more aware of what we say around him - his memory for the pizza event was funny, but a little reminder that we cannot use "adult language" in his presence.
We are visiting the grandparents in CT this weekend. Tonight it's Ga and Gee's house (Uncle J is here, too - an added bonus), and tomorrow we are off to Mimi and Pop-pops (with the hope of seeing [Great] Grammy M and [Great] Pop-pops J). Our trip down here was pretty smooth; traffic was minimal, and other than a few gusts of wind that shook the family truckster on the Pike, we arrived without breaking a sweat. As we entered town, we started asking CR which way to go to get to Ga and Gee's house..."Is that their street?..Should we turn down this road?...Is that their house?" And crazily, he was able to navigate us to their farm house without guiding us astray.
I am just happy that he knows his way around...not that I would expect him to drive here if B and I wanted to snooze on the repeated one and a half hour trek to our home state, but at least we know that he is capable of recognizing where he is outside of the block around our house.
